The Red Sox will be paying a visit to a few familiar faces next month.

In August, the team will take on the Dodgers in Los Angeles, marking the first time the two teams have met since last summer’s blockbuster trade that sent Adrian Gonzalez, Carl Crawford and Josh Beckett to the West Coast and brought Allen Webster to Boston.

The Sox will not see Beckett on the trip — he has already been shut down for the season due to injury — but Gonzalez and Crawford should be in the lineup to take their first swings as Dodgers against their former team.

Tom Caron and Dennis Eckersley touch on this and more in NESN Sports Today‘s second-half preview special. Check out what they had to say in the video above.
